Jrue Holiday, PG/SG, New Orleans Pelicans

DraftKings Price: $8,900

On the other side of the court from Jokic, the Pelicans will be led by Jrue Holiday, who has been a stable presence on a team missing their best player. He's stepped up his game during this recent five-game stretch without Anthony Davis, putting together averages of 24.0 points, 7.6 rebounds, 7.4 assists (really, Jrue...can't dish out more than the 7'0" Jokic?), 1.4 steals, 1.6 blocks (he had six last night), 1.8 triples, and 50.7 DraftKings points.

His output against the Nuggets has been consistent if anything. He's topped 40.0 DraftKings points in four straight games against them, something that is hard to see him fail to do tonight, especially given the 227.0-point total, which implies that tonight's game should be a fantasy-friendly affair.

At only $8,900, Jrue is still a bargain relative to his recent play without Davis. We have him projected for 43.3 DraftKings points tonight with upside for 60.6 if he can put it all together and the Pelicans are able to make a game out of it.
